The story of a cook

Chapter 318
For wine, people have many opinions.

Whether wine is good or bad, no one can tell.

Alcohol can add to the fun, so immortals drink it; alcohol can mess with sex, so Buddhists abstain from it.

Is it good to drink?There is no conclusion.

When I was young, I drank, that is, I drank a lot, and I didn’t get drunk, so I thought it was good.Drinking now, drinking it alone, savoring it carefully, although not as much as when I was young, it has a different taste.Summed up a piece of experience, if you want to drink, you must first understand what is wine, understand wine, know what wine is, and then go to drink, in order to get the taste of it.

Alcohol must be tasted to be called alcohol, otherwise it is better not to drink.

But drinking can really make mistakes, and it can also make people do wrong things.

Everyone drank very happily, Li Shuang stretched his head and said that he wanted to sing.

When she stretched her head, everyone responded, so they went to the karaoke hall to sing.

When I went to the karaoke hall to sing and had to drink, I drank a lot of small bottles of beer, and it was almost twelve o'clock when I came out of the karaoke hall.Zhang Li didn't drink much when she was in the barbecue restaurant, but after going to the karaoke bar, she regained her spirits, drank a lot of beer, was a little drunk, and asked me to take a taxi to take her home.So we took a taxi with Li Shuang and Zheng Jiaqi. We first took Li Shuang and Zheng Jiaqi home, and then took Zhang Li to the entrance of her house and got out of the car. She was a little weak and helped her upstairs.

Since school hadn't started yet, her sister didn't come back, so she was alone at home.

Help her into the house.

She sat on the bed, looking like she was about to vomit, looking very uncomfortable.Helping her to the bathroom, she retched for a while but didn't spit it out, then went back to the room and sat on the bed.

I said: "Don't drink so much wine in the future, it's not enough to torment yourself."

She looked at me and asked, "Old Tan, do you think I drank too much?"

"Not much, just drunk."

"Cut! I'm drunk with just a little wine. You don't know how much I drink."

"I know you drink too much, today you are over the limit."

She laughed, took me by the hand and said, "I'm not overweight at all, I just want you to go upstairs and stay with me for a while."

She looked like she had succeeded in a trick.

"Okay, stay with you, you lie down first, and I will accompany you." I said.

"Don't lie down, I'll lie down, you should run."

"What are you running? Don't run." I said.

"Old Tan, look at the two of us in this room, alone and widowed, don't you want something to happen?"

When she spoke, she stared at me, a little drunk, but also tender.To be honest, looking at her red and pretty face, her seductive lips, and the aroma that came out when she spoke undoubtedly stimulated a man's hormones and aroused his desire to possess a woman. She fell down on the bed and had the urge to love——
But impulsiveness must be followed by impulsive punishment.

For a moment, the whole room was filled with ambiguity.

I told myself that I wanted to stay away from her, but I didn't move, and I knew I wanted to stay away from her, but I really didn't move.

She slowly pulled me closer, or I could say that I was also approaching her. When their noses were about to touch each other, I held her face with both hands and felt her face was hot and hot.

I look at her.

It was a face full of longing, with blissful anticipation——
Seeing her gently closing her eyes with a sweet face——
The slightly raised head and the waiting lips are red and charming.

At that moment, I wanted to kiss her, kiss her hard—

Kissed, but not her lips, but her forehead.

Kiss lightly and leave quickly.

The moment I left, I saw tears streaming from her closed eyes—
Her eyes were closed, but the tears were streaming—
The tears that flowed out of my eyes seemed to be dripping on my heart, and there was pain.

She opened her teary eyes and looked at me.

"Old Tan, is that all?"

I am speechless, completely speechless.

Her tears were still flowing, she gently snuggled into my arms, and hugged me tightly——
My girl, why bother?

I admit that I am not a gentleman who sits still, and I also have emotions and desires, and I also long for an understanding woman to cuddle with me and enjoy romance to my heart's content.

But no, if you can't marry someone, don't have an affair with them, and don't have anything to do with them, that will harm both yourself and others.

It seems that she left Zhang Li's house by escaping.

The heart is on the run.

Walking on the street at midnight, when the cold wind blows, the wine wakes up, and people wake up too.Tell myself to go home, Lin Yan is still waiting at home, that is my wife, the person who will accompany me for the rest of my life.

Back home, Lin Yan had already fallen asleep, so she undressed gently and went to bed, got into the bed, the bed was very warm, lay down next to Lin Yande's body, put her arm under her neck, and hugged her gently.

She seemed to know that I was back, turned over, got into my arms, and fell asleep sweetly like a kitten.

Laohan Villa has reopened, and the business is still very good. After all, it has done a good job before, and the people still have a good reputation.

After a month of calm, the business recovered to more than 2 yuan per day.

At work this day, Zhang Li said to me: "Old Tan, have you read the news? SARS."

"SARS? What SARS?" I asked.

"I don't even know about SARS, it's just pneumonia, a newly discovered infectious disease that can kill people." She explained to me simply.

"I really haven't paid much attention to it. Is there one in our provincial capital?" I asked.

"Not yet—" she said uncertainly: "The news says that Guangdong and BJ are now the best, and our provincial capital seems to have one too."

I asked, "So powerful?"

She said: "What do you think, infectious diseases can be spread through the air, so they are really dead."

"Really, will there be fewer meals in the future?" I said.

"It is guaranteed to be reduced. It is stipulated that gatherings are not allowed, and even wedding banquets are not allowed."

I said, "That's not the end, the restaurant is still open."

She said: "The number of people eating is guaranteed to be reduced, and everyone is afraid of being infected."

SARS came in [-] so quietly.

Affecting all walks of life, the catering industry began to suffer a depression.

In the first few days, people didn't take it seriously. After everyone realized the seriousness, the restaurant's business declined rapidly and fell directly to the bottom.Take Laohan Villa as an example, it can’t even sell for 2000 yuan a day, and there are almost no customers.

Mr. Wang is in a hurry to get angry, and it's useless to get angry. If there are no guests, there are no guests. No one dares to make fun of his own life.

It's not that Laohan Villa has no business, and every restaurant has no business.

It persisted like this for a month, and when it was approaching May [-]st, the villa cut off two-thirds of its staff.Zhang Li and I proposed that only Li Shuang and Master Hou are left in the villa, there are two waiters at the front desk, and a cutting board, a cold dish boy, and a pastry boy are left in the back kitchen.

There is no way, it can only be like this.

The king was always very depressed on the day he left the villa.It can be seen that the female boss is very unwilling, but there is nothing she can do.Everyone hopes that the business of their restaurant will be good, but when encountering SARS, people's lives are at stake, and no one can do anything about it.

The spring of that year was the winter of the catering industry, and it was very cold.

Not only the catering industry, but other service industries as well.

China is experiencing the throes of an epidemic of infectious diseases for the first time since the reform and opening up.

Unite as one to fight against SARS.

From the city to the countryside, people all over the country took action to fight against SARS together.

At that moment, it truly showed the spirit of unity of a nation, and truly saw the cohesion and determination of a powerful Chinese nation in the face of difficulties.

That year, there was a lot of bitterness, but also a lot of moving.

In that year, I really felt that the motherland was strong.
